The final week of the JLT is here and so is a new My Team. Version 3 is running through the JLT Series… so get your chatter happening as the games play out.

Post your team (in an easy to read format) and discuss where it’s at in the comments below. Now that we have My Team cranking, discuss any players, team structure, etc in the comments. As always, keep it civil and if you’re advice, make sure you dish out some of your own (make sure it well thought out and not blatant trolling – we’re totally over that after 10+ years of DT Talk!).

I’m i crazy for going 4 rooks in Def to help fill up the fwds I would still have only 8 rookies on field which I think most are going with its just I have 4 down back to where I think there is more value

Very solid line-up. Only concern is O’sheas job security. Good pick if named and will play first game of round so we will know teams. I think he will score better than Naughton (only opinion) if both playing.

4 rookies in defence is a concern. If O’shea is named I would play him ahead of Doedee.

Mids are all high ceiling players which is exciting….but all have the potential to go low. might be worth changing 1 to a safer option. I would suggest Hall only because of his bye. (but all could go high).

Only concern in Fwd is Taberner. Against weak teams he may score well (will rely in goal scoring to get there but against say a Richmond (Rance) I don’t see him putting up a decent score? Tough, may be worth the gamble but I will be avoiding key position players (maybe except Franklin).

I like option 2. I think Merrett is good for an average of 5 more points than Kelly and Stef will average 10 on Nank which puts you up 15 points. I dont think Gibbs will average 15 more points than Parker this year.

Nope, i would still rock JOM over davo armo, i think Jaeger will score 90’s in the real games, pushing some 100’s because Hawthorn lack onball mids and he is one of their few guys who play onball. So he’ll rack up, and he loves to tackle.

I am firmly in the JOM camp. He could possibly be the second main option in the Hawks mid this year meaning he should see quite a few centre bounces.

Armatige I feel is quite far down the pecking order at the young saints and if they lose a few games may make way for some younger talent. He might find himself out on a wing or rested in some games due to his lack of recent football.

I have Armo down for a 70-85 average and JOM down for a 80-95 average. Only opinion.

Neale has jumped from 3.3% to nearly 9% since his performance. Don’t get me wrong he’s a good pick, but are people really that reactionary to one good JLT score? Parker’s ownership has done the same also

I think its because our premiums have under performed, i was a Neale owner in his first year, i picked him in 2015, 16 and 17. He is a gun but i think he had a poor season without Fyfe and plays best with the Brownlow star beside him

DEF: Laird, Lloyd, Brayshaw, Naughton, Coffield, Murray (Pearce, Doedee)
MID: Titch, Zerrett, Rockliff, Parker, Cripps, O’meara, Brayshaw (FRE), Banfield (Barry, Finlayson)
RUC: Gawn, Goldstein (no one cares about my ruck bench so i’m gonna use this to let you dudes know I know Goldstein is a risk, but so are many other ruckmen this year and I think Preuss is still too young to be playing consistently, especially over an AA ruckman, so I think he’s very underpriced and a good POD)
FWD: Billings,

RUC: Gawn, Goldstein (no one cares about the ruck bench so i’m gonna use this bit to let you dudes know I know Goldstein is a risk, but so are many other ruckmen this year and I think Preuss is still too young to be playing consistently, especially over an AA ruckman, so I think he’s very underpriced and a good POD, especially off the back of that JLT performance)

I would move mitch Hibberd to Naughton. murray on the ground as well. I’d keep Sicily as well and maybe Menegola to a Billings if all four of the star Midfielders play as there will be MINIMAL scoring output during those games (by minimal I mean 85 avg)

Whats everyone thoughts on JOM? I see a lot of people are jumping off him. Is it worth downgrading him to someone like rayner and use the spare cash to increase some of the premos to higher ranking premos? Or should we take the risk and keep him?

personally I dropped him for a rookie. he was my M6 as my only midpricer. now I have
guns at M1-M5 and rookies (brayshaw/dow/banfield) at M6-8 and im happier with that
setup. i figure if he goes off, the cash generation from rookies wil help me get him mid seasonish.

If you go back through the last few months of my team pages you can read my comments as I repeatedly tell people he will have as many 60’s as 90’s. the guy has pretty much missed 3 years of footy. He will tire in games as well as tire as the season goes on. It will take him a season or 2 to fully find his feet again. If you are happy to get a 75 average out of the guy & make 100-150k then pick him but please don’t have unrealistic expectations of the guy.

Thoughts on florent?
His JLT performances were impressive and with limited options in the fwd rookies, is he a valid option?
Already got rayner in the midfield and fritsch as my other rookie. Is florent a lock?

Also sacrificed JOM at m6 for rayner, bolstered my premos and rookies. Is this a good idea or should I still have jom at m6?
